Hi, Marilyn! How did you get from your day job to writing romance? I went from writing without a day job to writing with one after a divorce several years ago. In 2001 I discovered romance novels, and earlier than that I had dabbled in non-fiction writing. After a few years of reading romance, the writing bug hit again, and I knew I wanted to write about happily ever after. Between that decision and the sale of TEA FOR TWO, I also wrote for the confessions and romance magazines. Most of my stories had some romance in them even while the heroine was overcoming whatever seemingly insurmountable problem I had saddled her with.
What are your three favorite books of all time? Mr. Perfect by Linda Howard, Nobody’s Baby but Mine by Susan Elizabeth Phillips and Barefoot by the Sea by Roxanne St. Claire.
Morning, afternoon, or evening person? Evening! And thank goodness the day job doesn’t start until 1:00 p.m.
